On January 9th, 2018, organizers announced that the super duo Sugarland has been added to the lineup as well.

The music festival will be held on May 25th, 26th, and 27th at the Daytona International Speedway.

Country 500 attracted 75,000 country music loving fans from across North America to Daytona for last year's show.

Festival Producer Quint Davis says that "Daytona Beach, Florida welcomes you to the third annual Country 500 Music Festival. As always, the festival features the very best in country music, with Toby, Chris and Dierks leading the way, plus dozens more great artists, making Country 500 the first big event of the summer. Nothing but a party; bring your best fun on over!"

Daytona International Speedway President Chip Wile also said that "“The Country 500 is one of the most popular and anticipated music festivals of the year. The 2018 edition will once again feature a star-studded lineup of artists behind one of sport’s most iconic backdrops. We’re looking forward to welcoming music fans from all over the globe to Daytona International Speedway on Memorial Day weekend to celebrate the unofficial summer kickoff. The festival is a great opportunity to experience fantastic country music and enjoy the fun-filled atmosphere Daytona International Speedway continues to deliver.”
